Johnny is torn on sampling somebody else's tracks. Too many artists today take a song and simply use IT as the song and add very little of their own music to make the sample work. He's also a devout Clash fan, very protective of all things Clash. You may be amazed he liked this track by M.I.A., a very very versatile artist in the club world. A song about immigrant stereotypes and making it in today's world. This does a very good job of sampling the Clash's 'Straight to Hell' and actually adding layers to it.
Judge for yourself.
M.I.A. with 'Paper Planes'
